Narrated Business Proposal for the Philadelphia Eaglescamrynascott12
Slide 1:
Welcome, and thank you for joining me today. We will explore a strategic proposal to enhance parking and traffic management at Lincoln Financial Field, aiming to improve the overall fan experience and operational efficiency. This comprehensive plan addresses existing challenges and leverages innovative solutions to create a smoother and more enjoyable experience for our fans.
Slide 2:
Picture this: It’s a crisp fall afternoon, driving towards Lincoln Financial Field. The atmosphere is electric—tailgaters grilling, fans in Eagles jerseys creating a sea of green and white. The air buzzes with camaraderie and anticipation. You park, join the throng, and make your way to your seat. The stadium roars as the Eagles take the field, sending chills down your spine. Each play is a thrilling dance of strategy and skill. This is what being an Eagles fan is all about—the joy, the pride, and the shared experience.
Slide 3:
But now, the day is marred by frustration. The excitement wanes as you struggle to find a parking spot. The congestion is overwhelming, and tempers flare. The delays mean you miss the pre-game excitement, the tailgate camaraderie, and even the opening kick-off. After the game, the joy of victory or the shared solace of defeat is overshadowed by the stress of navigating out of the parking lot. The gridlock, honking horns, and endless waiting drain the energy and joy from what should have been an unforgettable experience.
Our proposal aims to eliminate these frustrations, ensuring that from arrival to departure, your experience is extraordinary. Efficient parking and smooth traffic flow are key to maintaining the high spirits and excitement that make game days special.
Slide 4:
The Philadelphia Eagles are not just a premier NFL team; they are an integral part of the community, hosting games, concerts, and various events at Lincoln Financial Field. Our state-of-the-art stadium is designed to provide a world-class experience for every attendee. Whether it's the thrill of game day, the excitement of a live concert, or the camaraderie of community events, we pride ourselves on delivering a fan-first experience and maintaining operational excellence across all our activities. Our commitment to our fans and community is unwavering, and we continuously strive to enhance every aspect of their experience, ensuring they leave with unforgettable memories.
Slide 5:
Recent trends show an increasing demand for efficient event logistics. Our customer feedback has consistently highlighted frustrations with parking and traffic. Surveys indicate that a significant number of fans are dissatisfied with the current parking situation. Comparisons with other venues like Citizens Bank Park and Wells Fargo Center reveal that we lag in terms of parking efficiency and convenience. These insights underscore the urgent need for innovation to meet and exceed fan expectations.

As we delve into the intricacies of our operations, one glaring issue emer

• Conversation is Key - two main concepts
1. Share quality and relevant content
Concept Explanation
Post content Mix up the type of content posted. Use a mixture of news updates, videos,
photos, links, and notes.
Sourcing other quality content YouTube videos from other relevant sources, RSS feeds from own
organisation or relevant others.
Posting style This should be open, inviting, warm and personable – but also consistent
with the image of the organisation
2. Encourage discussion and engagement
Fan comment strategies
End status with a question
Add your own personal comments to encourage further discussion
Reply as often as possible to fans, use the @name if possible
Try and reply as promptly as possible
SMAANZ 2012 Developing a Social Media Strategy for Tennis NZ
17. Findings
• Competitions and promotions
– The use of these was the most successful in raising awareness and
exposure to the ‘brand’
• Behind-the-scenes material (videos and photos)
– The use of these was the most successful in encouraging constant
engagement and conversation
SMAANZ 2012 Developing a Social Media Strategy for Tennis NZ
18. Findings
• Metrics and ROI
– In order to determine the value and success of an organisations social
media presence, evaluation needs to take place
– To do this, there needs to be a way to measure success
– Lack of suitable metrics is often provided as a reason why
organisations have not entered the social media realm (Tsai, 2009)

23. Research Contribution
• Implications for Academics
– The ubiquity of SNS is causing more organisations to accept a more
open and collaborative relationship with their fans and therefore there
is a need to better understand this ‘new phenomenon’
– Emergent themes provide a contribution to theory building in SNS
literature
– Provides the first insights into social media strategy creation for a NSO
SMAANZ 2012 Developing a Social Media Strategy for Tennis NZ
24. Contributions to Industry
• Implications for other organisations
– To develop a successful strategy, stakeholders involved need a clear
understanding of:
• How social media fits within the organisation;
• How and by whom, the social media strategy will be managed;
• What their fans expect out of their social media relationship
• Clear guidelines for how ‘success’ will be measured
– Before expanding into multiple social media platforms, ensure that
current platforms are being managed effectively
A one-size fits all approach is not appropriate!
